Machine data acquisition / MDA

Software for a holistic view of production and quality

The use of machine data is an important component for quality assurance and performance improvement in production and is therefore enormously important for the competitiveness of a company. Only by taking a holistic view of production and quality can weak points be uncovered and optimization initiated.

This is exactly where the MDA software from Quality Miners comes in. It is the optimal connecting element between the store floor and quality assurance and allows a view of production from both sides.

Maximum flexibility and efficiency through workflow-based solution: QualityMiners.MDA

Our solution is completely workflow-based. All functions within QualityMiners.MDA can be linked together in almost any way.
The system enables comprehensive acquisition of many important machine data.
These include: quantities, malfunctions, setup times, process data. and much more

Real time
Thanks to the wide range of integration options (including OPC-UA), all relevant data and events are monitored and visualized in real time.

This makes it possible, for example, to calculate the expected duration of a running operation and to visualize all important condition data, also in connection with the relevant quality data.

Individual machine terminals with a wide range of functions
Individual machine terminals can be set up for machine operators. Via this terminal it is possible to retrieve all important information of the machine at a glance. If desired, a machine terminal can also be used to record malfunction reasons, setup times, scrap messages, SPC checks, and much more. be recorded.
The machine terminals are also ideally suited to be operated on a touch screen. This makes the system easier to operate for all employees on the shop floor.

Extensive evaluation options
QM.CAQ uses data from the entire production process in conjunction with a detailed planning system (APS). This enables QM.CAQ to respond quickly to events and trigger dynamic rescheduling, for example. If SPC is also used, the processes are closely interlinked. This makes a holistic view possible and thus the path towards zero-defect production.
